AWD 2012 Chrysler 300

I bought the car in 2019, kept it 6 months. I think the styling is awesome the main reason I bought the car. Seats are comfortable and car is quiet. I don't know if it's the all-wheel drive or not but I find the ride to be too firm, feeling just about every bump for a car this size and I made sure the tires were 30 lb PSI to soften it up. I would have preferred a plush ride. Quite a few mechanical problems lowered my score for this car such as cruise control worked on and off. All of a sudden there was an error with the all-wheel-drive that said it had to be serviced. Once that happened, everything else seemed to be connected to it so nothing else worked. No more cruise control no anti-lock or traction control or blind spot protection. Apparently when that light popped on about the all-wheel-drive being serviced, everything else went out with it. I wasn't going to get into repairing that, sold the car. One thing I noticed is, it was a [non-permissible content removed] to close the door when you're sitting in the car, you can't reach the handle. Also when you go to open the drivers door if you don't push it open with just right amount of force, the door closes back on you. The infotainment Center is okay but not great and sort of a nuisance how you have to open a different window and then choose airflow if you are looking at the radio on the screen. But they put a hard AC button down below. Why didn't they just put a hard air flow direction button down there so you don't have to fiddle with the touch screen. The gas pedal is a little weird in that you get a delayed reaction when you accelerate. I don't know if it's an electronic gas pedal or what but that sort of sucks.

$32,000 Loaded, Unbelievable! This car rides like a Bentley. This has to be the best "for the money" purchase i have made in years. Brakes are strong, interior with cloth seats still feels RICH. Steering wheel and wood trim look and feel outstanding. I cannot believe the reasonable price on this car. 23MPG mostly city, also is impressive. Gotta admit, I'm blown away by this car!

I'll admit when I first picked mine up, I was pretty impressed. It looked nice, drives fast, and was a great take an an american sedan, and who doesn't like the design!!. Sadly, after just a week of driving the car to work, the quality of many components broke down. this car is not worth the trouble. I suggest to anyone who wants this car, go with something else
